The keyword for 卸 is wholesale. This kanji refers to the selling of goods in large quantities at lower prices, typically from a distributor to a retailer rather than directly to the end consumer. It encompasses the broader concept of the wholesale trade and distribution system that serves as an intermediary step in commerce.
